Vigil StarGazer Posted October 2, 2009 Report Posted October 2, 2009 (edited) Have you ever heard of new words in your friend's volcabulary that's completely made up of two words, but when put together it creates another word in such a unique way that it almost becomes an entirely new concept? Well, put there here and share it with your other pen-friends! You never know when it'll turn up to be the next new word in the english dictionary! Gignormous -[ Gi-norm.mussss. ] (combination of gigantic & enormous) - Adjective 1. greatly exceeding the common size, extent, etc.; huge: 2. exaggerated size. Peter North stick his gignormous *beep* into Carmen Electrica's wet and swollen *beep* as they began to excitedly *beep* *beep*. Patheisad - [ Ppppa-featha-s.ad ] (combination of pathetic & sad) - Adjective 1. miserably or contemptibly pitiful inadequacy. 2. deplorably bad to the point of sympathetic affection. What? You mean her poetry book didn't even sell a single copy? That's Patheisad. Stupidstitious - [ stoo-pid-stish-uhsssss ] (combination of stupid & superstitious) - Adjective 1. believing in, full of, or influenced by senseless superstition. 2. pertaining to or connected with foolish superstition. His stupidstitious beliefs made him into a scientologist; letting the leaders of that church take turns on his hot wife. From urban dictionary : redonkulous re.donk'u.lous adj. 1. significantly more absurd than ridiculous to an almost impossible extreme; without possibility of serious consideration. 2. fitted to excite absolute ridicule; intentionally crazy and silly; completely absurd and laughable. "redonkulous" - as first popularized by the fictional character Seth Cohen on FOX's The O.C. George W. Bush is the most redonkulous person in the world. The first Bush administration was ridiculous. This second one is just redonkulous. Edited October 2, 2009 by Vigil StarGazer

Quincunx Posted January 16, 2010 Report Posted January 16, 2010 (puzzled look) Not that I don't love the submissions, especially the one-upping of 'ridonkulous' which points towards a system for one-upping and intensifying a lot of these terms--because I do--but why is it that a tmesis (that's the fancy term for splitting a word and dropping another word into the gap to make one long compounded word) is so frequently used for a negative adjective? I know of 'splendiferous' (adj., aesthetically appealing, with extra ruffles and flourishes. "You filled the room with roses?! What a splendiferous gesture!") but not too many other positives.
